Nonnina comes through in these reviews as a cozy, welcoming Italian spot in Lachine with a bakery like pastry counter, fast service, and a lively but friendly vibe. The menu earns high marks for generous, fresh sandwiches such as porchetta and Italian meats, with the spicy chicken sandwich a longtime favorite though some readers note the chicken cutlets have grown thicker and chewier. A broad pastry selection including cannoli, pistachio cannolis, tiramisu, and zeppole is consistently praised, as are the coffee and espresso drinks which many describe as excellent, even if a few note variability. Desserts and coffees pair well with a wide range of Italian baked goods, and the pastries are described as outstanding and reliably delicious. The staff are repeatedly praised for warmth, attentiveness, and efficient service, contributing to a familial cafe vibe and a strong sense of community, though it can be busy or noisy at peak times. Overall it is regarded as a must visit neighborhood gem with substantial sandwiches, superb bakery items, and a welcoming atmosphere.
We ordered through Uber eats. Ordered 2 panini sandwiches & the parmesan truffle fries. Everything was delicious & prices were quite reasonable. Will have to try the sandwiches on focaccia next time (extra $3/sandwich).
Da turisti italiani abbiamo trovato qui il vero sapore di casa.
Panino preferito: mortadella, mozzarella e pesto di pistacchio 💚
Ampia scelta di qualità del reparto pasticceria.
Tutti molto cordiali e gentili
Consigliatissimo!!!
A hidden gem in Lachine! The vibe inside it feels like you are in a little busy cafe in Italy, staff is very lovely & you can also buy some of the local italian products.
Their sandwiches are excellent & the pastries are to die for! Highly recommend getting an afogato on a hot day especially since they also make their own gelato.
Their cakes are also very good, very light & not too heavy, call 1-2 days in advance if you want to order a specific whole cake for a celebration.
Highly recommend their cannoli cake, their pistachio cannolis, their almond flour pistachio cookies & the proscuitto sandwich to name a few!
Catered a 30th birthday party from Nonnina's & was not disappointed. Great selection of party food to choose from. Price matched the quality & quantity of food ordered. Sandwiches & pastries were fresh & delicious right down to each last bite. Eaten at Nonnina's many times as well & always delicious, great service & atmosphere for a smaller space!
Tools long detour to get here but everything was spot on -the food, service, atmosphere. Forgot to put one item in the box but they still get 5 starts.

Yes Nina more like it! We had the pleasure of meeting Mario, I believe his name is. My wife & I ordered the Porcetta Sandwich, the Italian meats sandwich & an assortment of their desserts. I have to say what a treat! Sandwiches crafted with love & ohhhh ao delicious. Anyone craving an Italian styled sandwich has to visit Nonninas. Do yourself the service. Incredible staff & incredible food! Get going! Get there!
Everything that they offer is top notch! I've had the wraps & bakery items previously but even the shelf-stable pantry items they sell are really good. It's a regular stop for me at this point. Plus, the prices here are very hard to beat. Definitely a unique place that adds a lot to the Lachine area's food scene.
Great sandwiches, delicious cannoli, nicely located near the farmer's market & a small walk from the park, we often get our lunch & have picnics by water. It can be really busy at lunch time, but worth the wait.
I always have the Italian meat sub & it's incredibly filling & yummy. My husband really likes the spicy chicken (the mayo is spicy not really the chicken) & he really loves the Natas (Portuguese custard tart).
Review long over due! I have ordered almost everything on the menu.....my go-to lunch place. From Gelato to a salade & everything in-between. You will have trouble choosing but that is ok...you WILL be back!
I love Nonnina! Such a staple in Lachine. Great food, great pastries & great coffee.
They use high quality ingredients & truly authentic Italian flavours!
